Install water-saving fittings:
Add water savers to your existing shower head and use flow restrictors on washbasins. These reduce water consumption without compromising comfort.
Repair leaking taps:
Even small leaks can lead to large water wastage. Make sure that all taps are properly sealed to avoid unnecessary water loss.
Use a cistern with an economy function:
Modern toilets often offer the option of adjusting the flush. Reduce the amount of water per flush to save water automatically.
Collect rainwater:
Install a rain barrel to collect rainwater, which you can then use to water plants in the garden or for other purposes.
Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth:
Turning off the tap while brushing your teeth can save a lot of water. Avoid letting the water run unnecessarily.
Use a dishwasher and washing machine efficiently:
Wait until these appliances are fully loaded before you switch them on. Modern dishwashers and washing machines are more efficient than washing by hand.
Water plants in the morning or evening:
Avoid watering plants during the hot part of the day as this leads to evaporation. Instead, water them early in the morning or late in the evening.
Use kitchen water for watering:
A lot of water is wasted when washing fruit and vegetables or waiting for hot water from the tap. Collect the water and use it to water your houseplants
Showering instead of bathing - the classic:
Showering generally uses less water than bathing in a bath. Try to reduce bathing to a minimum to save water.
Be careful when washing your hands:
You don't have to leave the tap running all the time while you soap your hands. Turn the water off and then on again when you really need it to save water.
